Pysanky – General Tips
So I’ve teased you a bit about pysanky… let’s get going on this! Here’s a few general tips. I’ve been doing this for quite a while… 14 years? 15? 13? But come this time of year, and I still search google and youtube and vimeo and pinterest and see what I can find. Lately, I’ve…
Oh, Else
Thank you all. As the emotions swirl, and I struggle between tears and bouts of ragged coughing, her presence lingers strongly. My Golden Girl. My Sweetheart. Elsa Dear. I roam this blog, in hunt for entries mentioning her name. Her photos appear just as softly as she moved along my side. But best of all,…

How To Needle Felt a Bird
All righty then! You’ve had extra time to gather your supplies… let’s create a bird! I want my birds lightweight, so I’m not making them solid like if I was using hot water to felt the wool. I’m just layering light roving… creating a close approximation to a bird’s body… then adding some details. The…
Crayons and More!

PAP Testing Video
Wow… Seems like this was pretttttyyy interrrrresting, eh? I’ll answer a few questions from yesterday’s comments first. Jake, seeing as how you’re *closer* to CSU, seems like you could put out some feelers for upcoming clinics, or contact Dr. Holt directly and see where he’s talking next. He’s well worth a drive! Darrell, you don’t…
What About You?
Since I’ve put out the call for questions for this month’s Q&A… I’d like to ask for suggestions as well… What *haven’t* I covered in blog posts? (stay away from personal items, I won’s share that! ) (I still have to make a solar oven… I haven’t forgotten… and I never touched too much on…
Minute Slide Show: Shaw Pasture
Yay! Accomplished this little job in between raking leaves and cleaning house! Amazing how easy it is if you don’t wait until 11 pm to do things like this! Here’s a little slide show, sharing our 5 hours of trailing cows to our Shaw Pasture. Beautiful day… 60 something degrees… no wind… barely any dust……
Minute Movie: Trailing By
This Minute Movie is twice as long as normal… but I just couldn’t resist the peacefulness that saturates this video! We are letting the cows trail by… Vernon on horseback in the middle of the gate, getting a good count as they walk past. Daniel leaves my side, and walks to the back of the…
Minute Movie: Elk in the Field
I decided at the last minute to run down to our other place and see if the elk were in the field. They’ve been coming in lately, and I’d seen them last night. It seems when the alfalfa gets frozen, the wildlife really hit the fields! Since we’ve been down to 20º, I saw just…
Minute Movie: Elk Bugling on the Bar C
The breeze lifted the eerie, beautiful sound to Panama’s ears. He halted, unsure. His nostrils flared, and every muscle was gathered. Should he run? Ears intently forward, his eyes peered into the rising sun. Other sounds to his left captured his focus, he looked and whinnied. Two other horses and riders appeared by the large…
